How much does a 160 gallon pail of instant ocean salt weigh?

I want to bring it back on the plane in my luggage, I think it is around 45 to 50 lbs, if it is over 50 lbs I can't take it in my luggage.

44.8 lbs off my bucket of instant ocean reef crystals.

Mixed to 1.025 or dry? Just trying to be thorough here =)

I want to see you get that into your luggage, take a pic.

I can't see that fitting into a normal suitcase.

Take it out and put it in ziplock baggies for 5 gallons at a time.

Honestly officer, its salt for my fish, not a banned substance.

HEHE, that would just be too funny.

Doesn't IO sell salt in boxes now? If so, you could take it out of the box, as it would be in a bag, then you could flatten it out.

But again, what if you get caught, they would not believe it was salt at first. Could cause you alot of grief to save a few bucks.
